It’s not just the students who are welcoming a new year at Florida Southern College. FSC is also home to a pack of cats who call the campus their home.

The felines are cared for by the students in the Florida Southern College Campus Cat Club. Members feed them, monitor their health, and take them to the vet when needed. Each cat has a name, and some of them (like Mr. and Mrs. Moose) have even become campus celebrities due to the club’s Instagram posts.

Keep an eye out for the cats on your next walk around Lake Hollingsworth by the FSC campus. Want to help out? There are many ways to support the club, including donating, ordering t-shirts + stickers, or even signing up to foster one of the kitties.
